This little pig went to market
/ˌðɪs lɪtl ˌpɪɡ went tə ˈmɑːkɪt/
/ˌðɪs lɪtl ˌpɪɡ went tə ˈmɑːrkɪt/
- the first line of a traditional nursery rhyme which parents say to small children when counting their toes to amuse them. Each 'pig' is a toe, starting with the biggest. The full rhyme is: “This little pig went to market,This little pig stayed at home,This little pig had roast beef,This little pig had none,And this little pig cried, Wee-wee-wee-wee-wee,I can't find my way home.”
传统童谣的第一句,父母在数小孩子的脚趾来逗他们开心时对他们说的。每只“猪”都是一个脚趾,从最大的开始。完整的韵律是:“这只小猪去了市场,这只小猪呆在家里,这只小猪有烤牛肉,这只小猪没有,这只小猪哭了,Wee-wee-wee-wee-wee,我找不到回家的路了。”
